The present disclosure provides a device and a method with which flat glasses with particularly uniform thickness can be obtained. The methods are drawing methods in which a glass ribbon is drawn. In the method an aperture is used which allows a defined very small slit between the glass ribbon and the aperture also in the case of a change of the position of the glass ribbon.

Device and method for the production of a flat glass

A device for retaining and storing a liquid medium, such as medication, includes a syringe body, a retention and/or storage container, consisting essentially of a glass material, a closure element for the retention and/or storage container consisting essentially of a rubber elastic material, and at least one needle. The retention and/or storage container is a vial having a solid bottom and a pushing device is provided to move the vial in a substantially axial direction in the syringe body, the pushing device acting upon the solid bottom of the vial.

Device for retaining and storing liquid media and method of expelling the liquid media

A container for pharmaceutical and medical applications made from glass, preferably from a borosilicate glass. The container is formed in the shape of a hollow body open at both its ends with a cylindrical portion having a wall thickness tolerance of maximally &#xb1;0.2 mm. The borosilicate glass has a nominal boron content that drops by less than 40% relative to the nominal value at all of the surfaces of the container.

Pharmaceutical and medical container

The invention proposes a process for the production of a container for pharmaceutical and medical applications made from glass, preferably from a borosilicate glass, wherein the container is produced by a press-blow process where the container is initially preformed in a pressing step, by making a ram press a dispensed glass drop into a mold that is open at its bottom, and where the parison so produced is given its final form by a subsequent blowing step.

Production of a pharmaceutical container from the melt

The invention proposes a process for the production of a container made from glass, in the form of a hollow body open on both ends for pharmaceutical and medical applications, in particular in the form of a syringe barrel, where a glass drop () is dispensed from a melting unit, is placed into a mold () that is driven to rotate, and is formed by the effect of the centrifugal force, the mold being driven at a rotational speed of at least 5000 rpm, preferably approximately 50000 rpm.
